Lt4 crate engine pcv valve question Hi everyone! I'm new to the forum and am looking forward to learning from everyone.
I have a new gen V lt4 dry sump crate engine that I am installing in a 69 camaro.
My question is about the crankcase ventilation and the pcv system. I have read a lot about how the new z06 ingest oil through the pcv system and is cokeing the intake valve being that it's direct injection. I am aware of the catch cans out there but from what I understand they still feed some gases to the engine. Being that I'm starting from a crate engine I can start off however I want.
How would you guys go about plumbing the crankcase ventilation system so the intake never sees the oil and gasses?
Want to start out with the best solution. Thanks

That's what I was thinking but have few questions for each.
If I ran a vacume pump, would it affect the scavenge on the dry sump oiling system?
If I ran just breathers, would I have that oil mist everywhere?
What about the valley gallery port, would I just plug that on both cases?
Thanks for the help
